Volcanic Eruptions in the Sand-
wich Islands.
Mr. George C. Lees,formerly of Westport,
but now residing in Honolulu, Sandwich
Islands, writes to his daughter, Miss. Alice
Lees, under date Jan. 16, 1881, giving a de-
scription of his visit to Manna Loa, a volca-
. no, during its late violent eruption. His ac—
count is thrilling 1n the extreme, and aside
‘from that his reference to the situation and.
size of the Islands conveys an idea of their
importance vastly different from that formed
by us at the east who have no conception of
their magnitude further than what a printed
outline map indicates. Mr. Lees speaks of
objects a hundred miles away in that familiar
style to which we are accustomed in this
great country, and a careful perusal of his
letter shows that that those Islands in the ‘
Pacific withih the tropics which look so lit-
tle on the map are really vast, and that it is
a perfect Eden over which His Majesty,
King Kalakaua reigns. PAUL.

Mr. Lees says :—“There is no danger here
from the volcano. It is more than one hun-
dred miles away. I was there a few weeks
ago. The boys offered me a vacation, I hav-
ing been constantly employed for two years
without losing a day. I embarked on the
steamer Likelike for Hilo, the chief port of
Hawaii. We left on Tuesday and after stop-
ping at two‘places on Maui and three other
places on Hawaii, dropped anchor in Hilo
Thursday morning. The lava flow of Manna
Loa' can be seen distinctly from Hilo, thirty
miles distant. One flow is runnig toward
Hilo, and last week I received a letter from
Mr. Coan, who resides there, stating that the
lava was within sixteen miles of the place.
but they did not apprehend danger from it as
the conformation of the land would divert
it from the the town and turn the river into
the sea. , . "
There were four in our party. We spent
Thursday looking about the town and in en-
gaging horses for our trip. Friday morning
we rode out of town. The first two or three
miles we passed through fields of cane, and
through four or five miles of grass. Then
into a forest of tropical wonders abounding
in ferns of every variety and size—some
frail and delicate as the finest moss, and
others towering twenty and thirty feet in the
air, with great spreading branches affording
cool and pleasant shade. Then came miles
of lava beds in all sorts of fantastic shapes
ike the waves of the sea—up and down,
over boulders, down into gulches where you
would think it impossible a horse could go,
sliding, stumbling, climbing and so on nearly
the whole distance of thirty miles over the
' worst road I ever saw. About 10 o’clock,
after being thirteen hours in the saddle, sore,
lame and hungry, we reached the Volcano
'House. All around us rose the steam and
gas of burning sulphur, great holes going.
down into the earth nobody knows how far,
a never ceasing flow of steam coming from
them and incrust-ing vegetation with a de-
- posit of sulphur. Right down in front of us
was the crater of Mt. Kilarioe, said to be
five miles across. Seen at night it looked
like the infernal pit of flame and smoke.
We were now at an elevation of 4,000 feet,
the thermometer at. forty-eight degrees, the
air chilly; To our right, 8,000 feet above us,
towered Manna. Loa, pouring a stream of
molten lava five or six miles wide and ten
miles long,—a very river of fire: .
Inside the hotel we found a broad fire place
and a cheerful fire round which we gathered
while the landlord prepared our supper. We
found here a Mr. Ferncaux,of Boston, Mass,
—a landscape painter whose acquaintance I
had made in Honolulu. He was painting
views of the volcano. He is a rapid painter
and his representations are perfect in all ex-
cgpt ,.magnitnde. Next morning, taking a
Enide, we left the hotel and descended four
hundred feet into the crater. After a brisk
walk of two miles over the hot lava full of
great cracks down which we looked at the
seething fires, we came to a great hole or
lake sixty feet deep with perpendicular sides
one thousand feet or lnore across, just like an
immense boiling por,the molten liquid belch-
ing, hissing and roaring like ocean surf, run-
ning in at One side and out at the other,
'making great caverns under the solid cliff
and occasionally throwing up a ,mass of
liquid into the air. Fascinated'with aston-
ishment and wonder we stood upon the edge
Of this awful abyss, not heading the danger
of our position, while our minds reverted
instinctively to, Him who holds the moun-
tains in the hollow of His hand,until scorched
by the heat and warned by the guide, we fell
back. It was a grand site, and I could have
gazed on it an entire day. That night, with
n roar like distant thunder one side of the
chi fell in, and our footprints were mingled
with the seething flood and borne down those
fiery caverns into the bowels of the earth
This is called the new lake and it is continu-
ally growing larger. There are two other
lakes to the leeward of this, but there is so
much gas, heat and smoke rising from them
that approaclgnuot be made. with safety.
We went down to another part of the crater.
where the lava was running about like mo-
lasses, a thin black crust forming on the sur-
face. We saw the crust rising and swelling
like a great hogshead, then breaking and the
fiery liquid running all about. We poked
our sticks into the lava getting some of it
on the ends. While it was soft we pressed
coins into it which, as the substance :cooled,
were imbedded in the hard lava. All our
silver coins were used up in this way. As
the soles of our shoes were getting uncom—
fortably warm we had to abandon the sport
and retire. There is not near so much fun
climbing out of the crater as there is going
down. About half—way up this crater there
is asmall monument erected to the memory
of a Mr. Holder, a wealthy Englishman who,
a year ago, while visiting this spot fell back
into the arms of his attendant'and gave up the
ghost.
In ,reading over this description of my
visit to Hawaii, 1 am struck with its tame-
uess. No tongue can express or pen portray
the awful grandeur of the scene. Kilauea
is the largest active volcano in the world,
while Manna Lon seems to have. capacity for
pouring out lava, which for quantity, is in-
: xhaustible."

Sen siblo Cookery.
Philadelphia has a new Century Cooking
club composcd'of Women, who have hired a
competent instructor, and are learning now
how to cook well. The president says :
‘There is a false idea prevalent that ‘profes-
sional cooking’ is a costly luxury, whereas
the advantage of thorough knowledge in this
art is not alone in producing good results but
in producing them by the simplest means.
Good cooking, in other words, means econo-
mical cooking. The ignorant; cook is the
wasteful cook, but in the hands of “one who
understands her business the simplest food is
made attractive, and an ordinary domestlc
dinner assumes the quality of a. banquet. " The
club lately gave a dinner to twenty—five per—
sons at a cost of $150 for the provisions as

a little grated cheese and mustard is used.

The Clean Newspapers.
Boston Herald.
There is a growing feeling in every healthy
community against the journals who make it
their object to minister to perverted taste by
seeking out and serving up in a seductive
form disgusting scandals and licentious rev-
elations. There is good reason to believe
that the clean newspaper is more highly
prized te—day than it was four or five years
ago. It is also safe to predict that, as peo-
ple in all ranks of life, who wish to protect
their own - at least from contamination,
become more conscious of the pernicious
influence of a certain class of journals,
called “enterprising” becausc they are am-
bitious to serve up dirty scandals, they will
be careful to see that the journals they per-
mit to he read in the family circle are of the
class that never forget the proprities of life.
Already men and women of refinement and
healthy morals have had met attention call-
ed' to the pernicious influence of bad litera-
ture, and have made commendable efforts to
counteract the same by causing the sound
literature to be published and sold at popular
prices. These efforts are working a silent,
but sure revolutl'on. The best authors are
more generally read to-day than at any pre-
vious time. The sickly sentimental story
paper, and Wild ranger and pirate story
book, are slowly yielding the field to worth~
ier claimants. To the praise of the decent
newspaper it may be said, that where it has
a place in the family, and has been read for
years by young and old, it has developed
such a healthy tone and such a discrimina-
ting taste that the literature of the slums has
no admirers. Fortunately, the number of
such families is increasing in the land, and
as they increase the journal that devotes lt-
TEMPERANCE.
Contributed by Ladies of Norwalk Tom p. Union.)
Uniting Temperance Forces.
Mr. R. Graham, Secretary of the Church
of England Temperance Society, has been
addressing churches in New York with great
acceptance.
A few evenings since he addresad a large
congregation in Grace church. The Rector,
the Rev. Dr. Potter, in introducing the speak-
er, said that Mr. Graham represented a society
which had united the efforts of those who
believed in total abstinence and those who did
not object to the moderate use of spirits,
“As ayoung man in London," said Mr.
Graharn,"‘long before the society which I
represent was organized, I used to follow
news lads and rugged urchins to their homes,
and when I saw how squalid and wretched
those homes were, I began-to inquire into
the cause of this poverty. Ifound that nine-
-tenths of it was the result of druhkcnness,
and then already I hoped that the Church of
England, which can touch the Queen with
one hand and her meanest subject with the
other, would organize a crusade against this
vice.” .
Eight years ago, the speaker said, a com-
mittee appointed by the Church of England
to report on the causes and extent of drunk-
enness found that one of the greatest causes
of intemperancc was the sale of liquor on
Sunday.
“I was sent here," Mr. Graham continued,
“to report upon the efficacy of your prohibi-
tory laws. We have no such laws in Eng—
land, be it said to our shame, and to your
shame be it said that you have such laws but
do not carry them out. Only last Sunday
night, as I 'went down town on the Third
Avenue Elevated Railroad, I looked down
through the windcw panes over the doors of
the saloons that line the avenue and saw the
sale of liquor going on as lively as duringthe
week, and then I would see the policemen
standing at the corners contemplating the
moon and making studies of astronomy."
“Steps are now being taken,” said Mr.
Graham, “to organize a Church of England
Temperance Society in this country. A
committee, of which Dr. Potter is to be
chairman, will soon take the matter in hand.
I hope his congregation will aid their pastor,
and that from this church a great power will
rise up against the vice of intemperauce."
Mr. Graham told a reporter that efforts
would be made to unite Dr. Crosby and his
followers, who, while favoring temperance,
did not urge total abstinence with the more
radical element of the temperance workers.
The committee to complete the organization
would number sixteen, eight ministers and,
eight laymen. ' '
A former-"Judge Dying _a Home-
less Drunkard.
CIIIcAGo, March 16.——J udge L. S. .Graham
died at Atchinson, Kansas,this mornrngfrom
the effects of dissipation and exposure. Last
night he was found by the police .lylng In-
sensible on the platform of the Union depot
in that city,and the physician who was called
pronounced it a paralytic stroke. Graham
was at one time Judge of the Distrct Court
at Atchinson, and was a lawyer of great
ability, but of late he had been a drunkard,
deserted by his family and supported by
charity. .
Did not this judge begin his melancholy
career of drunkenness by drinking in moder-
ation? Would he ever have been a drunkard
hadhc been a total abstainer from aloholic
liquors? How many of New York’s police
judges, and even those of a higher class,
have died of drinking, although some other
cause was assigned 1W ere any of the judges
who were notoriously heavy drinkers toward
the close, drunkards at first? or did they all
acquire the inebriate’s terrible appetite
through what is called moderate drinking?
Would Dr. Crosby or the President of the
Moderation Society be pleased to answer
these questions?
The New York Sun of March 17th, has
the following:
Ellen Caldon presented a most shocking
appearance as she took the witness stand in
the Special Sessions Court, yesterday, to tes-
tify against her husband, Jeremiah Caldon.
Both her eyes were closed, and her entire
face Was bruised and swollen. She is a
small, delicate-looking woman, while her
husband is a tall, powerful man. .For many
years past he has frequently beaten her.
Once be nearly killed her, and was sentenced
to four years' imprisonment, another time to
one year, and he is but a few weeks from
prison,,where he was sent for beating her.
Mrs. Caldon related how, after he came back
to her he began selling her clothing and furni-
ture for drink, then when drunk he beat her.
Caldon was sentenced to four months’ im-
prisonment.
Did this demoniac husband become a
drunkard at once? Certainly not. There is
only one gate into drunken habits, and that
is moderate drinking. Shut that gate and
there will be no more drunkards. Yet some
of our first men—even ministers of the Gos—
pel—keep that gate persistently open by pre-
cept and example. _
The following order has been issued :
By direction of the President the sale of

tions is prohibited.

An earthquake at Ohio, an Island in the
Grecian Archapelago off the coast of, Asia
Minor, has it is estimated, destroyed or in-
jured 3,000 persons. The population of the
island is about 50,000, composed principally
of Turks. The staple production is gum
mastic, though silk, cotton and wool arc rais-
ed, and copsiderable wine is also made. The
chief city and capital is Chio,or Kastronvhich
has 'a population of 14,500' The history of
the island ante-dates the christian era. by cen-
turies. It was invaded in 494 B. C. by the
Persians and laid waste. In ancient times it
was claimed to have been the birthplace of
Homer. In 1822 there was an uprising
against tho’Turks, but the insurgents were
put down and within two months 23,000 per-
sons, regardless of sex or age, were killed,
47,000 more sold into slavery, and 5,000 fled
to escape death. Achristian population of
over 100,000 was reduced to 2 .000.

Foop Barns -—A remarkable case of
abstinence from food is reported at Battle
Creek, Mich. Last October, Mrs. Henry
Ingram liad some teeth pulled. This brought
dn nausea at the stomach and inability to
retain food. The woman is still alive,
havmg eaten and drunk nothing since 0c-
tober. She is nourished by being bathed
in beef tea, milk, etc., which acts by absorp-
tion, the quantity absorbed being nearly a
quart per day from these baths. She feels a‘
sort of hunger which is soon allayed by the
bath, after which she feels as if she had
eaten. A bath of water will quench her
thirst. Her stomach is said to be totally
paralyzed.

The late Professor Henry is quoted as
once saying that there was not a city in the
world that could produce so many able, cul-
tivated and learned men as Washington ; and
in support of his statement he said that he
had occasion to have a scientific document
translasted into thirteen different languages,
and he had not the slightest difficulty in
finding individuals connected with the ad-
ministration of the government who were
able to translate quickly and easily the docu—
ment into all those languages.

Daron von Humboldt says her
Kate Field on Men.
The, Sorosisjgave their thirteenth annual
lunch on Monday last, at Delmonico’s, in New
York, entertaining as their only guests Miss
Kate Field and Miss Genevieve Ware, the
actress. Miss Field was called upon to speak
and delivered the following neat and witty
little address, which was declared the hit of
the day,'and almost encored :
“Shakespeare says that a low,soft voice
is au'cxcellent thing in woman, a sentiment
so sympathetic to St. Paul that Ire absolutely
amrmanzls women to keep silence. How,
then, with the ghosts of these authorities
rising before me dare I open my mouth, ex—
cept, of course. to do justice to the viands
of Sorosis? . Why, I never made but three
post-prandial speeches in my life—all in
England—when I was called upon to return
thanks for “the ladies," a subject much
more fit to be embraced by men. If I must
say anything to-day, pray let me toast “the
gentlemen,” who are so conspicuous by their
absence. The gentlemen, God bless them!
What could we do, what should we be with-
out them ? Nothing.
Who w‘lops us, and on our ears
Bestows a box that draws forth tears '2
‘ ' our father I
Who bullies us, anti calls as names,
Makes life a burden with his games P
Our brother!
Who takes us home from singing school
So Sweetly spoons, and plays the fool?
Our cousin 1
Who holdsour hands in his, and kneels
Until we heed his mad appeals?
‘ Our lover!
.Who pays the bills, and‘undergoes
The discipline that Candle knows 1’
' a Our husband!
Who give us spinsters good advice,
And take us out, and are so nice?
Our bachelors!
Who—all in all—are none to good
F: r human nature's daily food?
The men, God bless them?”
Children’s Quaint Sayings.
The London Truth recently offered a prize
of $10 for the quaintest saying of a child.
Several hundred contributions were sent in,
of which the following‘are a few of the most
pointed:
As we were talking one day about churches
and their various ceremonies, a little boy re-
marked that he had seen a christening, a fu-
neral and a wedding, but he had never seen
a divorce. ~
Jack (aged four years taking a walk) :
“What becomes of people when they die ?”
Maxnma: “I‘hcy turn into dust,dear.” “Jack:
“What a lot of people there must be on this
,road, then.”
Tottie: -' “I wonder why dolls are always
girls, Tom ?” Tom: “Because" boys hate be-
ing made babies of.” .
A child seeing a bill on a telegraph post :
“0h, mamma, look! A message has fallen
down."
. Precocious boy of six years, listening
wearily to a longwiuded tale, related by a
prosy relative, took . advantage of a short
pauseto say, slyly, “I wish that story had
been brouiht out in numbers 1” ‘
“Little baby is very ill. Charlie ; I am
afraidhc will die.” “Well, if he does die,
mama, he won’t go to the bad place.”
“Why, Charlie, how can you know that?”
“Oh, I know he can’t mama; he’s got no
teeth to gnash.” .
Little boy learning his catechism from his
mother. Q—"What is man’s chief end !"
A—“His head."
Girl (yawning over lessons): “I’m so tired;
I should like to go to sleep.” Boy: “I’ll
tell you what to do then. Get up early to-
morrow and have a good sleep before break-
fast."
Mamma: “And David was able to kill that
great Big man Goliah. because God helped
him." Harry (aged six): “Well I don’t call
that fair mamma, that’s two on one.”
A little girl had a peung given her to put
in the collection box at church. When she
dropped in the coin, she exclaimed : “That’s
the way the money goes, pop goes the wea-
sel !” '
Small boy, watching his sister iron 3 piece
of work with a bird’s nest of eggs done in
crcwels on it: “I say sister, if you keep the
iron so. long on those eggs, you’ll hatch
'em 1" .
A little girl, seeing two love-birds billing
and cooing, was told that they were making
love. “Why don’t they marry?" she asked;
“then they would not make love any more.”
A fond mother said to her little son: “Tom-
my, my dear, I am going to give you a little
companion soon; which would you prefer, a
little boy or a little girl ?” “Well, mother,”
replied Tommy, “if it is all the same to ‘you,
I would rather have a donkey.”
A little girl, aged 5 years, going to bed one
night, and kneeling down to say her prayers,
said : “0h, mamma, may I only say amen to-
night? I’m so tired.” -
What. a Name Is Worth.
“A few months. or years, ago,-— it doesn't
matter Which," says one of gossips of the
‘Contributors’ Club’ who represents himself,
as conversing with the editor of amagazine,
—“a certain friend of mine took it into' his
head to make a curious experiment, My
friend is a. distinguished man of letters,
whose manuscript is as good as gold at any
publisher’s counter. Though a writer of
books, he is an experienced magazinist, and
it was in connection with the magazines that
he proposed to test the value of a name.
He prepared an article with all the skill he
knew, had it copied by his daughter, and
sent the copy to the editor of the leading
literary magazine in the United States. Af-
ter a delay of six weeks the manuscript was
returned to my friend, who promptly dis
patched it to another chief magazine. The
nameless contribution was again returned to
the author. N o, it was not ‘some poor little
sketc’h’; it was a little masterpiece. To cut
a long and dismal story short, five American
magazines refused (and in two cases very
curtly) to print a paper for which any one
of the five editors in question would have
been glad to pay ten times its weight in gold
if he had known who wrote it. My friend
enjoyed the matter immensely. He took
especial delight in a note which accompanied
one of the deelinations. The note was ‘writ-
ten by a sub-editor, presumably a young
man, who saw so much ‘promise’ in the es-
say submitted to him :that he proceeded to
give my friend a few general hints on the
subject of literary style.”
“That manuscript never came . into my
hands,” said the able editor.
“My dear fellow, you were the first man
to whom it was sent.”
“And I rejected it ?”
“After six weeks.”
“Well, I’m glad I did I”
“And so am I, for it braces up my theory
that there is a great deal in a name, and one'
doesn‘t like to have one’s pet theory toppling
over.”
“
. It is expected that over half a million for—
elgncrs will emigrate to this country during
1881. Of thls number it is thought that 175,
000 will come from Germany.
Two mothers were boasting of the smart—
ness of their babies. “Why," said one,
“when my baby cries it puts the telephone to
its mouth and I can hear it away down in the
' parlor.”
“You don’t know how it pains me.to
punish you,” said the teacher. “I guess
there's the most pain at my end of the stick,"
replied the boy feelingly. “'1‘ any rate, I’d
be willing to swap." ,

StlEllTIlIt' tumult.
Trowe’s utilization of electricity in com-
bination with surgical instruments is bearing
fruit. A case is reported from Vienna in
which a doctor has succeeded in curing a
cancer in the stomach, mainly through the
assistance rendered by the polyscope in il-
luminating the cavity of the stomach. The
electric probe, which rings a bell when a
ball or any metallic substance imbedded in
the muscles is reached, is found a valuable
acquisition by army surgeons; and an appli-
cation of the same principle to surgical for-
ceps has enabled a Berlin oceulist ,to save a
mechanics eye which had received a bit of -_
steel. The case had become so urgent that
the eye 'must be lost unless the piece of
metal could be extracted without delay; but
Dr. Hirschberg, by inserting a soft iron
probe and subsequently converting it into
a magnet by passing an electric current
through it, withdrew the metallic particle,
and saved the eye.
The death was lately announced of Mr. F.
A. Nobert, whose fine rulings on glass have
given him a world-wide celebrity. As test-
plates for the'power of microscopes he ruled -
bands of lines of varying fineness from 11,-
200 to 112,000 to the English inch. It was
formerly his opinion that lines so fine as the
1—112,000th of an inch would never be seen
resolved in the microscope. The feat was
accomplished, however, by Dr. Woodward;
when Mr. Fobert immediately produced a
new plate, having one band of lines of a
fineness of 224,000 to the English inch
whether or not these minute lines will ever
be seen cannot now be safely predicted.
Mr. Nobert has always’beeu very reticent in
regard to his methods and it is thought
probable that no one is acquainted with the
secret of his success. It-may therefore befall
us that Nobefi’s microscopic ruling is to be
counted among the “lost arts.”
A phonograph of an. improved construc-
tion is to be tried at Paris for teaching pupils
the pronunciation of different words in for-
eign languages.
Sir Wyville Thompson has estimated that
the pressure upon a man’s body at a depth
of 12,000 feet beneath the surface of the sea
would be equal to a weight of twenty loco-
motives, each with a good train loaded with
pig-iron.
, According to the studies of M. Hebert,
the storms which reach the European coast
from America originate for the most part in
Mexico, Central America, and the northern
ports of South America; but they do 'not
generally strike the Atlantic until after they
have traversed a more or less extended part
of the length of the North American Conti-
nent. The storms which Originate in the
United States reach Greenland, or pass the
neighborhood of Iceland or the Faroe Islands
too far away to effect Europe.
Excavations commenced a short distance
from the walls of Pompeii, with a view of
ascertaining the nature of the surroundings
of the city, have led to the discovery,
within an area of a few square yards, of
thirty skeletons, ten of which were huddled
together in one room of a small suburban
villa. Bracelets, necklaces, earrings, and other
objects, were found upon the bones.
In a paper on the organs of smell in in-
sects Gustav Hauser describes several in—
teresting experiments. Numerous species of
insects, on approaching vessels containing
turpentine, or acetic acid, showed—by re-
treating and moving their antenniae-a dis—
tinct perception of the smell. After the ends
of the antenniae had been cut off, the same
insects placed close to the vessels appeared
quite insensible to the odors. A number of
flies, which had been attracted by a piece of
putrid meat, showed no inclination to ap-
proach it after portions of the antennae had
been cut off.
All ordinary fruit acids are said to act
upon tin, and one case is reported in which
persons were made violently sick from eating
fruit preserved in cans, no foreign substance
except tin being found in the fruit. .
A curious experiment in heat is performed
withan apparatus devised by Dr. Grease.
The apparatus consists of three concentric
vessels separated by annular spaces of about
three-fourths of an inch. The outer space is
filled with oil, and the inner with water.
The oil ls heated to a point above 212 de-
grees Fahrenheit, when the water begins to
boil. Oil heated to 300 degrees is then in-
troduced into the central vesSel, and falls
rapidly to a temperature about that of the
boiling water. Dr. Grassi finds that this
central oil cools the more quickly the greater
the heat of the outer ring of. oil—a result
seemingly very paradoxical. \_
A writer in the Jewish World points out
that contrary to the received idea, the elder
Rabbins of the Talmud taught that the world
was round. This is shown by a passage in
which in discussing idolatry, the figures
holding in the hand a baton, a bird, or aglobe
were prohlblted, because the baton. symbo-
lizes the dominion of the world, the bird that
the world lies beneath it, and the globe is
forbidden because it resembles the form of
the world itself.
The presence of disagreeable odors in the
atmosphere was the source, of considerable
annoyance to people in certain districts of
Past last summer. The smells were found
to originate in a certain establishment where
refuse matter is manufactured into fertilizers.
M. Bouchardat, of the Paris medical faculty,
has examined the question of the effect of
these emanations u'pon health, and has con-
cluded that they are innocent. He does not
believe that they convey with them the
germs of disease, and finds that the gases of
which they are composed do not load the air
enough to produce a perceptlble poisoning.
Assuming that contagious diseases ~should
manifest themselves within eight or ten days
after the planting of the germs, the weekly
health bulletins of the year have been exam-
ined to learn if any increase of mortality
followed the introduction of the unpleasant
odors. No such increase has yet been de-
tected.
Nicotine Poisofiin g.
A rather unusual case of poisoning has oc-
curred lately in a Paris suburb. The victim,
at man in'tllc prime of life, had been cleaning
his pipe with a clasp knifg ; with this be ac-
cidentally cut one of his fingers subsequently,
but as the wound was of a trivial nature he
paid no heed to it. Five or six hours later,
however, the cut finger grew painful and be-
came much swollen ; the inflammation rapidly
spread to the arm and shoulder, the patient
suffering such intense pain that he was oblig-
ed to betake himself to bed. Medical assist-
ance was called,and ordinary remedies proved
ineffectual. The sick man qneStioned as to the
manner in which he cut himself, explained
the use to which the pocket knife had been
applied. adding that he had omitted to wipe
it after cleaning the pipe. Th! case was
now understood, and the patienl’s state
becoming alarming he was conveyed to
the hospital. There the doctors decided
amputation of the arm to be the ouy hope of
saving the patient’s life, and was immediate-
ly done. .
A Wonderful Discovery.
Los Angeles, March 3.—A great discovery
has been made on the Mojave Desert, which
seems destined to revolutionize viticulture in
Southern California. It has been found that
grape-cuttings inserted in the trunks of the
cacti on the desert grow and thrive as vigor.
ously as in cultivated land. This fact is of
great importance to the people. By the use
of a chisel a man can plant a. large vineyard in
a day, and the vine so planted will climb the
cactus and grow luxuriously without cultiva-
tion or irrigation. The dry, hot sands of the
desert will afford a fine place for_drying rai-
sins. In addition to grapes it has been proved
that melons, cucumbers, and tomatoes will
grow from cactus stock, so that the desert
may soon bloom as the rose.
